Alesis

Alesis has cemented itself as a leading innovator of electronic percussion, keyboards, monitors, recording gear, amplifiers, as well as professional products based on Bluetooth technology and Apple’s iOS platform. Founded on the belief that absolutely everyone should have the chance at playing music, Alesis began their musical journey in the 1980’s. Providing high-quality equipment and products at affordable prices was Alesis’ forte, working how to cater to both experienced and inexperienced musicians was to become their legacy. Hiring the finest of musical engineers gave Alesis the tools to innovate, creating audio interfaces, synthesizers and keyboard equipment. The backbone of their brand being the famous electronic drum kits with almost identical acoustic sounds through the use of studio software.

Following a string of highly successful products (Alesis XT digital reverb, Midiverb and Midifex processors), Alesis continued to grow, hiring expert engineers along the way that propelled their status from budding innovators to immortal household names if you were part of the industry. In 2001 Alesis was acquired by Jack O’Donnell who coincidently also owned big DJ equipment retailer Numark, meaning all of the combined experience of the Numark and Alesis engineers were now working under the same umbrella. From here Alesis went on to create more innovative, modern products that we all know and love.
